"I bought these at REI prior to my first lengthy backpacking trip (14 days in the Colorado Rockies). I "broke them in" by wearing them when I walked my dogs for a few weeks beforehand, but that was it. They ended up working out amazingly well on the trip and I never had a single blister over two weeks while my friends (including someone wearing La Sportiva Makalus) were forced to use mole skin."

"I agree with other reviewers that it takes a long time to break in these boots. During the break in, I laced these boots while wearing strips of mole skin on my heels to prevent blisters. After a few years, and Superfeet I no longer wear moleskin."

"These boots are really great. I owned a pair of Montrail Vercors before the Moraine ATs. These are very similar boots except that the Moraines are even more comfy. The break-in period was really short compared to the Vercors (I am not sure why). The integra fit really works for me."

"You know, I've never written a review before, but after seeing some of the comments written about the Montrail Moraine AT's I couldn't help myself. I am finally retiring my Moraines after 6 dutifull years of service. I was looking for another pair at the best price when I stumbled across these reviews."

"The oohs and ahhs of this boot are short lived with me. Had this boot for over a year and still can't break these buggers in!! Actually I don't think they fit correctly either. Even with freshly cut nails my big toes always end up eatin' my socks."

"I have had these for over two years. I backpack around 6 to 8 times a year. The boots bend in the wrong places (cut into the back of my toes). I took them back to the place of purchase (Blue Ridge Mountain Sports) but was told that Montrail doesn't replace or refund."

"HaHa! So no one wants to buy the AT in the stuck British Rambling community. Thats why they were so cheap. Yeah I spent the best part of a day searching for 3/4 season boots with C1 crampon capability. These were the best fit and no price is not my only criteria."

"Bought these boots a little over a year ago and I really love them. These were a replacement for a 15 year old pair of Asolo Ridge boots (actually had a pair of Merrell Superlight Hikers for about a month in between. . . what a mistake. . they are a terrible boot)."

"The Montrail Moraine AT fit right out of the box. I put Superfeet inserts in them and wear them with a pair of liner socks (FOX river or polypro) and Smartfeet or Bridgedale socks. The boots fit my feet wonderfully and I've never had even one blister."

"As a ranger in a California wilderness area, I put these boots to the test with over 200 miles last season over the granite and rough trails of the Sierra.
Unlike their predecessors, the One Sport Moraine, these boots were very difficult to break in."

"I'm still working with these boots after a year, pleading with them to break in. I have moved into a sandal wearing culture across the Atlantic from my beloved southern US home, and my daily flip-flop wearing has made my heels go soft. Consequentially I get horrid blisters from these boots when I make the occasional trip into the Moroccan backcountry."

"My first real pair of off trail boots and I must say thoroughly impressed. Originally Gore-Tex was a priority but I heard that the New buck if taken care of properly was pretty waterproof and it has proven to be. I think the only time I have gotten wet is when water has seeped under my gaiters, and over the top of the boot (Mtn Ventigators) or I was standing in the river too long like an idiot! Support is awesome, as is cushioning, and the Vibram soles are confident inspiring."

"It took a little while for the boot and my feet to get acquainted and friendly, but this seems like a very fine boot. Holds hybrid crampons solidly. Great downhill support. Stiff enough for light climbing and general glacier travel. Seems pretty impervious to water. Breathes well (although I've used mostly in winter)."

"I have been using this boot for 4 months. I experienced a hot spot on the forefoot in the beginning. I still experience the sensation but not as bad. It seems that the Integra fit is not working. The boot is durable and traction is good. Support is also commendable."

"I love these boots. The integrafist system really clamps down on you heal and keep your foot in place. The toe is also quite roomy, but i have narrow feet. The best part is that the toe is protected with a thick rubber on tope which is always the first part to go on a boot for me."

"These boots are super tough! Just returned from a 23-day Colorado Outward Bound expedition in southern Utah, and these boots still look fairly new (after a long cleaning session, of course). The AT's were put through some of the most difficult mountaineering (La Sal) and canyoneering (Canyonlands) treks I had ever done with expedition loads, day after day for 23 days, and I emerged with just one tiny blister."
